Today, I explain how you should prepare your page before applying for affiliate programs, or when you are wanting to collab with other brands. I also go over what should be in your deck (or media kit) before you pitch it to a potential sponsor. 

On today's episode, I touch on how engagement matters not just with growing your following, but with building a community and bringing in potential brands or sponsors to your page. I explain how reverse engineering your goals while using the SMART goal setting method, is crucial for your growth and in actually obtaining the goals you have (whether it's for personal, career or both). 

On today's episode, I address some things that were brought to my attention by my husband, Sean and how I needed to take a step back and hit refresh for a new strategy involving my family and my business. If you're personally struggling with this, too I hope I can help with you evaluating your priorities in your business venture and what needs to come first. 

Sean wasn't able to finish the episode with me, so I dove into how to strategize and figure out the main pillars of your business to give your followers the best content you can give them. I also discuss your aesthetic, researching competitors, and how to find a supportive community even if that means people who aren't your friends and family.
